Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Svinkels' song Bricolage are about leaving work behind and going to the beach to engage in some DIY projects, or "bricolage". The singer is excited to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty, but they also want to have some fun while doing it, and make a spectacle of themselves. They have a sense of rebellion against the mainstream entertainment industry, wanting to break away from it and create something new and unique. They also reference drug use, depicting it as a part of the DIY culture they are promoting.

The lyrics are a celebration of a certain kind of DIY culture that values self-sufficiency, creativity, and independence from mainstream sources of entertainment and culture. It's about rejecting the idea that everything you consume should come from a commercial source, and instead seeking out ways to create your own art and entertainment. At its core, the song is about finding joy and satisfaction in doing things for oneself, rather than relying on the systems that typically create and distribute culture.

Hai hii, Hai hoo, on va pas au boulot
Excitedly exclaiming that we're not going to work today, and instead we're going to have fun doing some DIY projects.

Hey dizi qu'il est fini, apres on pars a la plage, on fait du bri-co-lage, c'est du Bricolage viello, on va r'trousser nos manche et mettre la main a la patte sans s'y prendre comme un manche.
After finishing our other tasks, we'll head to the beach and start doing some old-school DIY projects. We'll roll up our sleeves and get involved, making sure we do it right.

Faut qu'j'enfonce le clou, alors passe moi l'maillet par l'manche, qu'on d'vienne le clou du spectale et qu'on brule les planches, pour commencer l'Bricolage, fais moi un collage, qu'on goute le produit qu'nous a filé notre pote dans l'jardinage.
We need to make sure we do the best job possible, so hand me the hammer and let's nail this project. We want to be the standout star of our DIY production, and to kick things off, let's make a collage and try the product our friend gave us for gardening.

Et c'est bien partit on fait la teuf comme les gars d'chez darty, 7/7 24/24 c'est la free party, on va defoncer l'showbiz au volant d'un caterpillar, capri c'est fini on va enterer Hervé Villard,
We're all set to party hard like the staff at Darty. It's going to be a non-stop extravaganza, and we'll get things going by tearing up the showbiz scene while driving a Caterpillar. We're done with the past, and it's time to bury Hervé Villard.

Du son d'maison d'maçon tarte la variété a coup d'truelle, c'est cruel mais les jeunes n'ecoute plus Patrick Bruel, des lyrics a pleine brouette, sortie du BHB, t'achever avec un H.F. ... dans ton bar c'est mal barré, si t'es mal préparé, on casse tout, toi t'ira chez casto pour tout réparer,
We'll use some builder's tunes to knock out some mainstream music with a trowel. It's harsh, but young people aren't interested in Patrick Bruel's music. We've got plenty of lyrics to spread around, and they're all coming out of the BHB. If you're not prepared, we'll probably destroy your bar. But don't worry, you can always go to Castorama to fix everything.

un coup d'masse, un coup d'scie, un peu d'ca, un peu d'ci, tohubohu chaotique, sortie d'la boite a outils, faut qu'j'ressere les vis, j'pete les plomb, les boulons, une durite, White trash entrain d'sniffer du white spirit, c'est du Bricolage, d'l'outillage, du son d'garage,?. fait tomber sur l'carelage, au mic poncage, On fait du bri-co-lage!
We'll use a mix of different tools, including hammers and saws. There will be some chaos, but that's just a result of us rummaging around in the toolbox. We need to make sure everything is tight and secure, and we might get a little frustrated along the way. But, as we continue to work, we'll create some great DIY tunes that are sure to impress. And if we make a mess, we'll just clean it up with some sandpaper. We're doing some quality bricolage!
